After upgrade to Firefox 4, the feature "mouserightclick-open new tab" opens a new window, instead. From then on, all "open new tab" operations open new tabs in the other window, the second one created.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Thanks for the hint, cor-el , but problem persisted even with all Add-ons disabled. But after some 8 days and several O.S. reboots, the problem disappeared . No action was taken, I suppose that it was some bug that the developers corrected. Issue solved.
